His stocks are absolutely dropping every game of late. Not sure if he is injured or not but his offense output is very low recently.

Injured and playing through it. Commentators have been discussing it lately.

Watched yesterday's game and he was clearly battling with a flu like illness, they also mentioned he's been having some problems with his heel. Started the 2nd half and came off 49 seconds later and had nothing to do with fouls. Didn't bother watching the last 10 minutes as Vandy were getting pumped but I'd surprised if he played more than about 14 minutes in the match. Hopefully he regains his health soon.

Guys, guys, guys...if you took the the time to follow my posts on the "Ogilvy Watch" thread, you would know he is battling an injury and definitely does not have the flu. He has plantar fasciitis in one of his feet. It is a debilitaing injury affecting the arch in his foot and thus he has trouble walking, let alone running. He is a game by game proposition. And as the best player on the Commodore's team, his team is suffering in his absence.

LC, love your college player update threads and you're obviously a man in the know on college hoops, but the commentators in the game definitely said he'd been suffering from flu like symptoms recently, perhaps this is in addition to the plantar fasciitis you mentioned (or maybe the commentators got it wrong?).

No worries billo. I didn't get a chance to watch that game and when I found out he didn;t get much action, particulary in the 2nd stanza I wasn't as disappointed for missing it.
It's a shame he is playing hurt. I hope it doesn't hurt his cghances of being drafted in the first round...he is definitely a 1st rounder class-wise.
Big game for Aussie fan's this Friday our time (Thursday in USA), with Patty's Mill's and his #18 Saint Mary's team taking on the #25 Gonzaga for. Huge game for either team. A win for Saint Mary's will entrench them in the top 25 and could see them make a run at the top 10 if they could carry that form.

I don't think St. Mary's will be making a run at the top 10. They have a very soft schedule. Gonzaga is the only decent team they play. If they lose to them they could even miss out on the tournament (unlikely but still a chance).

I said "If" - and they certainly could, but I do agree it is unlikley. If they can go win for win with the Zag's, they will definitely make the NCAA tourney. They did last year along with San Diego and Gonzaga.
Beat the Zag's and back it up with another win on Sunday, and Saint Mary's will be ranked inside the top 15 next weeek (likely #14 or 15 IMO).
